Not Doing, Still Whole

INSPIRED TUESDAY – Your weekly pause for reflection, to inspire and be inspired

Today, I didn’t feel inspired to write.

And for a moment, that felt like a problem.
Because… it’s Tuesday. And on Tuesdays, I write.
That’s the rule, right?

It’s curious how easily I create rules for myself – even ones that once felt nourishing – and how subtly they begin to feel like obligations.

I hold my breath waiting for the words to arrive but all I’m really doing is clouding the stillness they need to emerge. The beginnings of irritation quietly building. My rule was to inspire and be inspired – and to do that consistently.

What if no words today is just as perfect as all the words on other days?
What if inspiration always lives in the silence, in the pause, in the not-doing?

So for now – today, I’m allowing myself to be in that quiet space that simply knows: You’re already enough.

Even without effort.

Even without inspiration.

Even without a single word written.

Maybe that’s the most inspiring thing of all.
